Abstract

[fre] Cet article souligne d'abord les difficultés soulevées par la détermination explicite des prix dans les modèles macroéconomiques appliqués : ambiguïté du statut théorique des équations de prix et de salaires ; biais dus à l'utilisation simultanée de deux liaisons salaires-prix et prix-salaires ; théorie trop moniste de l'inflation en raison du lot forcément restreint de variables retenues dans l'équation de prix et en raison du poids tenu par les enchaînements prix-salaires-prix. Les arguments qui militent en faveur d'une détermination implicite des prix sont ensuite analysés. Reprenant certaines des idées de base du modèle STAR, on montre comment une approche où sont confrontés d'une part le partage salaires-profits et le comportement de rentabilité des entreprises, d'autre part les caractéristiques techniques du système productif, constitue une première tentative permettant de livrer une explication plus synthétique des facteurs internes de l'inflation. [eng] Prices in applied macroeconomic models : explicit or implicit determination. . This paper first stresses the difficulties raised by the explicit determination of prices in applied macroeconomic models : ambiguity of the theoretical status of price and wages equations ; blases deriving from the simultaneous use of two linkages between wages and prices ; inflation theory made too much monistic owing to the limited numbers of variables considered in the price equation and to the important part played by the price-wage spiral.. The arguments for an implicit determination of prices are then analysed. Taking up again some of the basic ideas of the STAR model, the paper shows how an approach where are confronted, on the one hand, the share of wages and the enterprise profitability behavior and, on the other hand, the technical characteristics of the productive System, can represent a first attempt to give a more synthetical explanation about the internal factors of inflation.
